Just curious, are Hauppauge revs normally sequential, or are they some more cryptic not-necessarily-sequential series?
If they are sequential, then this board was made after my D487 PVR-500, which was made after the switch to the Samsung tuners. > This line says you're forcing the tveeprom from ivtv (using atrpms). > If you're going to force tveeprom, you probably should force tuner as > well. > >> #alias char-major-61 lirc_i2c >> alias char-major-81 videodev >> alias char-major-81-0 ivtv >> alias char-major-81-1 ivtv >> #options cx25840 no_black_magic=1 >> options ivtv ivtv_std=1 tuner=57,57 tda9887=0,0 ivtv_debug=1 > > Get rid of this options line. options lines are not needed anymore > and are very detrimental. > > Once you've tried that, if you still get tuner not set, you might > need to post this to the ivtv-devel list. As I mentioned, I've never > seen a PVR-500 with a rev E492. Just one thing I'm curious about the behavior of tveeprom - if the tuner is overridden with a command line option, will tveeprom's dmesg display the tuner that the eeprom says is on the card, or the tuner that the user overrode? i.e. if this card has a Samsung tuner, will the tuner override cause dmesg to display a Philips tuner in the tveeprom dmesg lines (which is what is happening here), or is the "real" detected tuner always displayed and then overridden? _______________________________________________ ivtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://ivtvdriver.org/mailman/listinfo/ivtv-users
